What is money? It really is just a piece of cleverly printed paper, with the ghost that shows in the light. But, of course, money has power. It's something we need and want but also something we need and want to spend. To have the power over a large amount of money is kind of great. Which is the reason I can think of for why people sign their names onto 100 dollar bills.
We all know that money needs a responsible holder. I'm not really going to talk about my responsibility. And do you really care? Do you actually care that I did my homework and that I keep my bedroom tidy, and I personally don't think that you believe anyone when they say things like "I'm going to be a good leader for the school." It's a popularity contest. You, the voter, want someone who is atleast respectable for a place on student council. Do you really have strong opinions about who it is? You're going to end up voting for your friend, if not, someone who made a memorable arguement.
And, of course, no one in this school has really had any experience in being responsible with money other than buying your own bycicle or maybe saving up that "allowance" for whatever your desires may be. So, is this race really one of experience and intelligence, or is it just one of making good impressions and winging it? I believe the latter.
But anyone who campaignes for the treasurer position wants to do well for the school, and if they get elected, they are completely expected to do it. Which is, well, exactly what I intend to do. But in student council, maybe the most you can really do is to tell the students, "Vote for me if you would like to."
I'm going to die writing this. I'd better get paid a dollar or better.

This girl is mad at me because I let someone use my camerphone and that person took a picture of her armpit. No need to comment on this one.

| Schooldays |
[02 Sep 2004|03:55pm] |
Today was my first day back at school. It was funny.. our school starts very early, so I have to wake up at around 6 o'clock at the latest to catch the bus. Walking down my horribly long driveway to the bustop this morning, my school bag felt strange. It wasn't so much that it was too heavy or too light. I guess it was rather light because my binders were empty. I kind of wanted it to be heavy so it felt like most other schooldays, but it was also odd-feeling because I hadn't carried one around for such a long time.
The eigth grade teachers are so far pretty nice. But you can never know because the first day or two is just so much review and introduction. This year our school is being heavily renovated, so we have about six portable classrooms. I go to one for study hall. I actually like it in the portable a lot. It's more airy, and since it's right outside on the asphalt in the parking lot, it feels a lot less claustrphobic in there, not to mention there's plenty of natural light, which I prefer over artificial light any day.
It's amazing how much people have changed. Some are mostly the same, but maybe it's because I've been keeping track of them. Some others are look like they're in their twenties. Some haven't even really matured, so they're still wearing the goofy clothes in the style of 5th grade. Some have just kind of wandered in a way. A couple of times I tried to say hello to some people from last year, and they didn't exactly respond.
So I guess school is okay. This was a heck of a long journal entry, especially for something like my LiveJournal. No one comments here anyways. I just wanted to write this down somewhere so I wouldn't forget it.

Oi.. I'm leaving very, very soon for the airport. And soon I'll be in England. I'm going on an AA flight to there, and then to Paris on a train. It will be interesting.. Mhmm. I have a nervous feeling in my stomach right now. Perhaps because it's been so long since I've traveled by air.
Hopefully I'll be back in one piece.
Will the real Louis Vuitton bag please stand up. (Sorry that's my personal joke. But perhaps you've noticed the circulation of the new fake Vuitton etc bags. They're verry annoying.)

I made some new stuff while I was very bored. This one is rather boring and generic but it at least gave me something to do. Enjoy!

| My first true rant. |
[16 Jun 2004|03:56pm] |
It's the second to last day of school, so we had an awards assembly. It was stupid. I wonder how the awards would have turned out if most of the people nominated weren't total suck-ups and fakes. I mean, yeah, I see how a lot of them deserved their awards. But, yeah. I'm not exactly complaining that I didn't get anything except this perfect attendance award, which I didn't deserve because I wasn't it school for many days. I also recieved an award for the highest grade average in English for my class, which is only about twenty people.
I hate it the most because if you don't recieve many awards, people think you're stupid. And I am WAY smarter than so many people, it's ironic. Yeah, sorry, if you think I'm being an ass, I probably am. But, you know.

| Six Too Many |
[13 Jun 2004|06:28pm] |
"Six Too Many" is my Algebra project, in which we had to write up a story for some math problem. Anyways. I rather like the story.
Section of Chapter 2;
We never did have to leave home. About an hour after I finished my breakfast, a person dressed in a classy green jacket came to the door and told Mum that I had to leave right away. She looked shocked. I went to the kitchen, where Mum had set my small suitcase of clothes on the floor, and brought it back to the door.
The green-jacketed man asked me what was in it. I only told him that I had my clothes with me. I was worried that maybe he would take other belongings away from me if I told them what they were: a picture of Mum, Dad, and me, a deck of cards (I didn’t expect to play many games while slaying the dragon, but I was prepared,) and a journal (I’m not much of a writer, but I figured if I survived this, it might be fun to look back at everything).
So with only a hug and a wave goodbye from Mum, who didn’t look all that sad to me, but pretty hopeful (I don’t know why), the man at the door took be down the small path of my house and a couple feet down the road, where a cheap-looking carriage was waiting. At least it as better than walking.
I climbed inside and took a seat, and the man in the green jacket sat opposite me. I felt kind of stupid, like maybe I was going to a royal party in this carriage. Cinderella. I was a Cinderella going to war with a dragon.
I couldn't get tabs to work. Ahh well.

You'll never guess what I found yesterday night! Unless you read the title of this entry, of course. Well, I found a book that I had been missing for quite some time. Don't think I'm an idiot. Just because I like "George's Marvelous Medicine" doesn't mean I'm in special education. Hah!
But anyways, I love that book. It's missing some pages, though, and I don't know if I can find them. I don't remember the ending being very great, however, so maybe I'll just leave it the way it is.
By the way, I revamped my LJ. Looks ok, eh? Threw it together like (that.)

"I remember everyday after that I would be afraid of bees hiding in the grass, waiting for me. So I always ran across the grass, especially on the summer days when I was wearing sandals. When I got to the sand pit I knew I was safe."

Changed my LJ apperance. You know the easiest way to make a pattern? Open up a new square transparent image, then doodle randomly on a new layer. Next duplicate and rotate it three times. Then crop it to be seamless. I'm a genius! :D
Oh. I got the Norah Jones CD. "Feels Like Home." The songs are pretty good. I love 'Carnival Town.' Weeeee :)

| March 13th; Saturday Cast Party |
[20 Mar 2004|01:49pm] |
Well. On account of my domain (revv.net) is being sold in a matter of days and I don't feel like blogging there, I'm going to use my Livejournal for the first time really ever truly blogging. Damn, I forget alot of what I was going to say, having to keep it in my head over the week at school. But I'll try to write all I can. This is mostly about the play I'm in, which took place Friday and Saturday (I'm writing about Saturday.)
Without as much excitement, nervousness, and first thrill the Friday night show had for us, our performance of 'The King And I' on Saturday was just as well done, in my opinion. We had less glitches in our lines than on Friday, and we were well prepared for the audience (which was, unfortunately, smaller than Friday's.) There's nothing special happening behind the curtains, but at the same time a special something, maybe the showtime enthusiasm.
After the show came chapter II of the night, just about as fun as our performance. I was extremely thirsty (allow me to show off my French: J'ai soif!) and drank some Sprite while almost everyone else engourged themselves with cookies and cake. A good amount of that party food was spilled on the floor of the cafeteria in which the party took place. Fortunately, either the adults there didn't mind or (less likely) didn't notice.
I took a bunch of pictures with my digital camera (okay, the family's camera,) many serious and many silly, including Coughdrop fashion models, crossdresser Charlie's Angels wannabes, and afterschool hookers. How fun, now don't get me wrong, where I live is a nice little town (which is NOT Epping, which my journal specifies,) but one must have pointless fun one time or another.
But eventually the hour hand on the clock struck 10, and the fourty-five minute party was unenthusiastically forced to a close. As everyone climbed into their cars, lined up in the carpool lane in the quiet black of the evening, I looked around for my ride home but couldn't find it (little did I know it was parked somewhere I didn't see.) So, I stayed behind for a little frosting fight and recieved a couple smears of vanilla icing on my face. What better than this?
In other news, I bought myself a dandy little Kyosho BMW 5 Series 1/18 scale model in silver. It cost me 70 bucks, and I think it was well worth the hour-plus drive to a retailer store and the money. It features four opening doors, opening hood, opening trunk, and carpeted interior and trunk. Very, very proud. I would have liked the titanium version of the car with a richer beige interior (with wood accents, opposed to my car's black interior with brushed aluminum,) but everything is fine.
As for the story I was going to write with this journal, I have decided to write it out on paper. I've already written five pages and plan to continue this weekend, although I have been slacking off with it lately. It's a life-story kind of thing. I hope to include the whole 'The Kind And I' event and many other things. Well, this has been a mighty long journal entry, but I hope you didn't fall asleep reading it.
